ABSTRACT
Electrocardiogram is commonly used to detect abnormal
heart rhythm. An electrocardiogram (ECG) records the
electrical activity of the heart. ECG signal is corrupted
by noise signal which restricts the correct diagnose of
heart beats. Adaptive filters are used to reduce the noise
signal from the ECG signal. In this paper an Adaptive
filter has been designed to eliminate the noise from ECG
signal by using LMS algorithm. In diagnosing the Fetus
heartbeat, mothers heartbeat can interfere as a noise.
The designed filter will reduce this noise from measured
signal by a reference signal which is highly correlated
with the noise signal. It can be observed from simulated
results that developed filter can separate out noise from
fetus heartbeat signal.

I. INTRODUCTION
Digital signal processing (DSP) is the process of
analyzing and modifying a signal to optimize or improve
its efficiency or performance. It involves applying
various mathematical and computational algorithms to
analog and digital signals to produce a signal that's of
higher quality than the original signal. DSP is primarily
used to detect errors, and to filter and compress analog
signals in transit. It is a type of signal processing
performed through a digital signal processor or a
similarly capable device that can execute DSP specific
processing algorithms. Typically, DSP first converts an
analog signal into a digital signal and then applies signal
processing techniques and algorithms. For example,
when performed on audio signals, DSP helps to reduce
noise and distortion.The main applications of DSP are
audio signal processing, audio compression, digital
image processing, video compression, speech
processing, speech recognition , digital communications,
RADAR, SONAR, and Financial Some of the
applications of DSP include audio signal processing,
digital image processing, speech recognition, digital
communication, RADAR, SONAR[1].
